Michal Jordán (born 17 July 1990) is a Czech professional ice hockey defenceman currently playing for Amur Khabarovsk of the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL). He previously played for the Carolina Hurricanes of the National Hockey League (NHL). He was selected by the Hurricanes in the fourth round, 105th overall, of the 2008 NHL Entry Draft.
Playing career
Amateur
Prior to turning professional, Jordán played major junior ice hockey in the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) with the Windsor Spitfires and the Plymouth Whalers. At the end of his first season of major junior hockey, 2007–08, he was selected by the Carolina Hurricanes in the fourth round, 105th overall, at the 2008 NHL Entry Draft.
Professional
Jordán made his professional debut in the 2010–11 season with the Hurricanes' American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Charlotte Checkers.[1] On 9 October 2014, just prior to the commencement of the 2014–15 season, his fifth with the Checkers, Jordán was named team captain.
After six-years within the Hurricanes organization, Jordan left as a free agent following the 2015–16 season. On October 7, 2016, he belatedly signed a one-year deal for the duration of the 2016–17 season with Ak Bars Kazan of the KHL.[2] He was limited to 27 games with Kazan, contributing with 7 points.
As a free agent, Jordan opted to continue in the KHL, securing a two-year contract with Amur Khabarovsk on May 26, 2017.[3]
